"Excellent Gutter Work! I had new oversized 6" gutters installed by Seidel Exterior Group, and I'm really impressed with the quality of the work. Udo Seidel’s team was professional from start to finish, and a special shoutout to Marty, who did the installation. He worked quickly, did a clean and careful job, and the end result looks fantastic. We have a mix of big-leaf, small-leaf, and pine trees around the house, so I opted to skip gutter guards and go for larger-capacity gutters instead—and I'm glad I did. Marty made sure everything was installed with attention to detail, and the system looks built to handle heavy rain and debris. Highly recommend Seidel Exterior Group if you're looking for reliable, high-quality exterior work!"

"M Construction replaced my roof at a fair price. We've had several big wind storms with heavy rain and I haven't found any indications of water intrusion and I still have all of my shingles so I am assuming they did the work correctly. Chuck was very patient and accommodating and answered all of my questions and worked to arrange the install date so as to have the least detrimental impact to my family. The team that replaced my roof worked hard to complete the job in a single 12 hour day. The only negatives I have are the following: 1) they placed shingles directly on my lawn, and the chemicals in the shingles killed the grass underneath. Luckily it is starting to grow back. 2) they aren't very good at cleanup. There were a lot of tiny pieces of plastic, packaging, shingle, and tar paper, left behind and I am still cleaning it up. I also continue to find the occasional roofing nail in my lawn or flower bed. In spite of these two issues, I will probably hire M construction again when I replace my gutters."

"Power home replaced the siding, fascia, soffit, gutters, shutters, and door of my home. The crews they sent out for installation were professional and competent. I was concerned about how the gutters would turn out as well as the color combinations. I was always able to call in to the service department with questions and they helped resolve all of my concerns. After the job is complete, they send out a quality assurance person to make sure that the installation was done properly. They answer your questions at that time. The company offers a lifetime warranty, so they will send someone out to correct any problems you have. I was very pleased with the look of the home exterior colors, and the new door. My neighbors have complimented me on the work as well."

"Honestly, not sure I could be happier with the work done or the rep who helped facilitate it all. Ian was knowledgeable, funny, professional, and just a great guy to talk to. Everything was completed well before I expected and they made sure it was all 100% in line with what I wanted. Harder and harder nowadays to find competent and reliable people, so I was borderline blown away. Won’t ever call anyone else or recommend anyone else for repairs. This is also the first review I’ve ever written if that says anything. Give them your business, you won’t think twice about it."

"Friendly, no pressure and prompt response from Sales. The crew who replaced garage siding, door, etc was professional, clean, friendly. Clean up was thorough, the garage looks fantastic and they were able to complete the job in less than 3 days. I am very pleased and will hire them for additional projects."

"Simply put, you will NOT find a better, more honest, more helpful, more easy-to-work-with, reasonably priced contractor than John Lee and his crew at J & K Home Improvement & Restoration! We had a "complicated" set of circumstances when our home was damaged by a storm, last winter. The insurance company sent out an estimator to assess the damage and, after the company recommended J & K Home Improvement & Restoration, I was introduced to John Lee. I eventually learned that John also does estimates for a variety of insurance companies (because his company is so well regarded), and he patiently listened as I described the nuances associated with our house. During our initial consultation, he was able to clearly describe all of the steps that would be necessary and answer all of our questions. Long story short, not only was John able to address EVERY single concern and request that we had regarding the eventual repairs to the house (including roof, siding, and a window upgrade that would have cost much more if we had done it at a later time), but he spent plenty of extra time making sure that everything we had talked about was addressed to our 100% satisfaction! He was also able to persuade the insurance company to cover more complete repairs than was originally specified by the first adjuster! In addition, when we had an electrical "hiccup" associated with all the pounding on the walls, John quickly sent an expert electrician to locate and correct the problem. He absolutely could have passed those charges on to us because the failure wasn't due to any mistake on the part of his crew but, instead, he picked up the unanticipated expense himself. It was truly a pleasure to work with John! He made a difficult situation as easy to manage as possible, and we would strongly recommend J & K Home Improvement & Restoration to anyone who wants to hire a quality contractor that stands behind their work and well-earned reputation!"

"This is a very professional, courteous family owned business and I have already recommended them to friends in the area. The installer said that he really enjoys working for the company, and that alone is a great recommendation ."

FAQs for wood or fiber cement siding installation or complete replacement projects in Great Lakes, IL

Yes, removing your existing siding before installing new cedar siding is essential for a secure and long-lasting installation. It helps eliminate hazards like rot and pest infestations and ensures a smooth surface for the new siding. Leaving old siding in place can compromise the appearance and integrity of your new cedar siding. Engaging a licensed siding contractor will ensure proper removal and preparation.

To determine how much cedar siding you'll need, start by measuring the height and width of each exterior wall of your home to calculate the area. For gable ends, measure from the base to the peak. Add up all these areas and then add an extra 10% to account for waste and future repairs. This ensures you purchase enough siding without running short.

Cedar siding endures between 20 and 40 years if maintained correctly from the start. This lifespan is secured by performing regular inspections for cracks, fungus, and bubbling and by pursuing consistent cleaning, painting, or staining with an appropriate sealant. Engaging a professional for periodic inspections ensures that your siding remains resilient and visually appealing for decades.

Your cedar siding must be maintained every three to five years through a thorough restaining or repainting process to preserve its strength and appearance. Regular maintenance prevents damage and ensures that the wood remains in peak condition. For homeowners seeking a less demanding upkeep schedule, choosing vinyl or aluminum siding offers a more resilient alternative while still providing exceptional style.
